These long summer days it seems almost a crime £ — the West elox alarm to call one to rise from bed with the sun and the birds. The higher we climb the tree af ter the high cost of living the higher it goes. John Barleycorn may not be dead yet, but his best friends sit ting up with him notice that he is picking threads off the sheets and bed quilts these last days. The Georgia Legislature almost blundered in its management of the Suffrage Proposition. Suffrage is coming, and no need to kill the National Democratic party by a silly opposition. Since women are voting all over the Union politicians had best be very careful about appealing to the plain people for loyalty and support. When one thinks of the cool sassafras, the delicate sweetness of Winter green and the cool riffle of passing brooks no wonder root beer tastes so good. Every auto tire company adver tises its wares just as tho there would be no punctures, but July, August variety know better from experience. Hens lay mighty little these days, perhaps they are in sympa thy with other strickers and are helping to keep up high prices for the consumers. The enterprise these days that does not advertise had as well go W: • ' wHhk v imß* IBabl MB Ih JHHk Edison Claims Are Proven! In selecting phonograph, don’t depend upon unsup ported claims, seek actual evidence. There are many de vices for sound reproduction offered and strong claims are made for all of them. But there is but one instru ment, the makers of which have ever submitted proof of the assertions made about it. That instrument is The NEW EDISON “The Phonograph with a Soul” Just what is claimed for this instrument? Merely this: that a RE-CREATION of an artist’s voice or instru ment upon the New Edison is so flawlessly perfect that no human ear can distinguish between the interpreta tion of the living, breathing artist and that of the New Edison. Nor is this a mere assertion. More than 2000 public tone tests in which the artists sang or played in direct comparison with the instrument have been held. More than 2,000,000 people have attended them. And out of this vast assemblage not one person has been able to say when it was the living artist he heard and when the New Edison. No other instrument has evw been sub jected to the searching tone test. No other instrument could sustain such a test. Make it a point to drop in tomorrow and hear a demon stration of the New Edison. * SMITH HARDWARE COMPANY WINDER, GEORGIA out of business forth-with and im mediately. The father and mother willing to let their children do as they please are making it terribly hard for said offspring in the near fu ture. An honest defeat is a thousand fold more desirable than a dishon est victory. The fellow who remains in law sensual enjoyment is cheating him self daily out of the highest plea sures and satisfaction of life. When the average man is as willing to help others as he is to help himself the Kingdom will be coming by leaps and bounds. If an education will make a fool a bigger fool, then why not every body try to secure something that will make him bigger? The man who makes no enemies has never opposed much evil nor accomplished much in a Construc tive way. CEDAR CREEK BAPTIST CHURCH.

BONDS MEAN GOOD ROADS ALL OVER THE COUN TY. VOTE TUESDAY. HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT OF GEORGIA. Dear Sirs: The next Federal Aid Allotment for Georgia will be approximately $2,019,000.00. In order that all projects may be inspected and reported on to the Highway Department at as early a date as possible, applica tions from the counties must be made before the 15th of July, 1919. Please send application to the office of State Highway Engineer as soon as possible. Federal Aid may be allowed on each project up to 50 per cent of the cost. Respectfully, W. B. Neel, State Highway En gineer. The above letter was sent out by the Highway Department to the various counties of the State which is proof positive of the de sire of the Federal Government to assist in road building but at pre sent Barrow Counry can not parti cipate iii this fund or in any other fund until by a bond issue she has money in hand to match Undo Sam’s dollars. The Government is not only appropriating money, but is also furnishing road machinery, such as trucks, rock crushers, roll ers, scrapes, wagons and all kinds of improved machinery for road building but this aid goes only to those counties that are on the Fed eral Aid list and that list is made up of the counties that are active enough in the road building game to issue bonds and show real mon ey when Uncle Sam opens his pockets to help them “fifty-fifty” and if Barrow County ever gets aid it is up to her citizens to go to the polls next Tuesday and vote BONDS. Remember the date on Tuesday the 22nd of July. THEN GO AND VOTE FOR BONDS.
